QUENCH IN SUPERCONDUCTING MAGNETS .2. ANALYTIC SOLUTION

A set of analytic solutions for the Quencher model as described in Par t I, is presented in this paper. These analytic solutions represent th e first such results that remain valid for the long time scales of int erest during a quench process. The assumptions and the resulting simpl ifications that lead to the analytic solutions are discussed, and the regimes of validity of the various approximations are specified. The p redictions of the analytic results are shown to be in very good agreem ent with numerical as well as experimental results. Important analytic scaling relations are verified by such comparisons, and the consequen ces of some of these scalings on currently designed superconducting ma gnets are discussed.
